PPH Super Intalox Saddle Product Description

The PPH Super Intalox Saddle is a high-performance random packing manufactured from polypropylene homopolymer (PPH). PPH differs from standard PP copolymer by consisting of a single propylene monomer, which gives it higher crystallinity, greater rigidity, and improved heat resistance—allowing continuous operation up to 100°C. The saddle-shaped geometry with serrated shell edges and additional perforations connects inner and outer surfaces, increasing free flow channels and promoting liquid distribution and surface renewal. This design delivers higher treatment capacity, lower pressure drop, and better mass transfer performance than standard Intalox saddles. Compared to standard PP Super Intalox Saddles, the PPH version offers superior stiffness and deformation resistance, making it suitable for deeper packed beds and higher-temperature services in scrubbing, absorption, and desulfurization towers across chemical, metallurgical, and environmental protection industries.

Product Highlights

• Higher Rigidity & Strength: Homopolymer PP provides superior stiffness and tensile strength compared to standard PP copolymer, preventing deformation under heavy bed loads and in taller columns.
• Improved Heat Resistance: Continuous operating temperature up to 100°C, with short-term tolerance to 110°C, exceeding the typical 90°C limit of standard PP.
• Higher Capacity than Pall Rings: The saddle geometry with serrated edges provides larger void space and a freer gas flow path, delivering higher flux and lower pressure drop than equivalent-size Pall rings.
• Serrated Edge & Perforation Design: Serrated edges and additional holes connect inner and outer surfaces, increasing effective surface area and promoting continuous liquid film renewal for improved mass transfer efficiency.
• Anti-Nesting & Uniform Porosity: The saddle shape and rectangular contact surfaces prevent packing pieces from interlocking or nesting, maintaining uniform porosity and avoiding channeling.
• Excellent Liquid Distribution & High Hold-Up: Arc-shaped liquid channels and internal fingers promote uniform liquid spreading and relatively high liquid hold-up, ensuring good absorption efficiency even in slow chemical reactions.
